Taihang Water Town related to Jin Ke

Speaking of Yixian County in Hebei Province, few people may know it, but everyone will be familiar with the story of Jin Ke's assassination of the King of Qin. At that time, Jin Ke went to Qin to assassinate the King of Qin. Before leaving, many people saw Jin Ke off at the edge of Yishui. "The wind is rustling and the Yishui is cold. When a strong man leaves, he never comes back." This is what Jin Ke sang when he said goodbye. of poetry. The Yishui mentioned here is located in present-day Yixian County, Hebei Province.

Yixian County not only has such ancient stories, but also has many scenic spots. Recently, we walked into Xianglian. Taihang Water Town, which is the host site of the first Hebei Province Tourism Industry Development Conference, Baidu, West Beijing It is a key project of the leisure resort and won the title of National Tourism Poverty Alleviation Demonstration Project. It is adjacent to the beautiful Yishui Lake to the west, the Qingxi Tombs, a world cultural heritage, to the north, and the red holy land Langya Mountain to the south.

When we came to the scenic spot, after passing through a commercial street filled with various commodities, the first thing that broke into our sight was a beige door opening with the two characters "Hometown Love" written on it. There is an antique feeling.

As soon as you enter the gate, the scenery in front of you is a surprise. Gray houses, gray tiles, a retro Taihang-style commercial street, colorful cloth signs of old-fashioned shops fluttering in the wind.

During the stroll, it is like traveling through history. Don't even know where I am.

Some farm tools are displayed in front of you one by one. Two big wheels were hanging next to the gray wall. Everyone kept taking photos with them, but I was reminded of my childhood. I remember that when I was a child, I and my children took advantage of the Sunday holiday to go to the sea more than ten miles away. We passed by a small mountain village called Sunjia. At that time, Sunjia was still relatively backward. On that mountain road, I saw a The squeaking sound of the ox cart when walking on the rugged mountain road with such wooden wheels still echoes in my ears.

A large vehicle was parked there quietly, with farm tools hanging on the wall. For me, who had lived in the countryside, seeing this large vehicle hood was particularly cordial. We have sat on the back deck of the cart several times.

An old-fashioned bicycle in the corner caught my attention. However, the bicycle carried a bamboo basket, which we have never seen in our hometown. This is a bit too popular.

As we walked, a gray courtyard aroused everyone’s interest. An old-fashioned gatehouse with two half-open black painted wooden doors. Fellow tourists stood leisurely at the gate and took photos, just like the hostess of this courtyard house.

Walking along this street, suddenly a large stage with a tall red curtain stood in front of you. Maybe a large performance had been held here. Fellow tourists couldn't help but run onto the stage and give a live performance.

After turning a corner, we walked into the custom snack street in Taihang Water Town. Here we not only have custom snacks from the Taihang Mountains, but also special delicacies from all over the country, including Baoding’s roasted donkey meat and white rice. Home cakes, Shaanxi’s authentic Qishan Saozi noodles, Yunnan’s Guoqiao rice noodles, etc. It is said that there are more than 100 types of snacks here. No wonder this snack street is known as a living food museum.

We passed by the shops one after another, and the aroma of various delicacies was overflowing, which was very tempting. There is a kind of cake called "sole cake", which is placed on a wooden stand outside the house, with green peppers on both sides, which is mouth-watering. Many of my fellow tourists tasted some of the local snacks, and when it was time to dine in the evening, they couldn't eat any more.

In this Taihang Water Town, in addition to delicious food, there are also twelve shops including tofu shop.

Other shops are also lined up. When seeing the fan shop, the tourist actually took out a small fan from his bag, as if he had just purchased the fan from the shop.

At the entrance of the old opium shop, a friend showed up smoking and left a photo. It was so interesting.

In the wedding supplies store, there were all kinds of supplies, and I took a wonderful picture.

On this ancient street, a small river passes quietly in front of the gray hut, and occasionally you can see various styles of small bridges crossing it.

Wooden pavilions of different shapes can be seen everywhere, and the small wooden arched corridor is very distinctive, attracting beauties to take photos one after another.

The pond with a rectangular stone fence on another street is like a mirror, reflecting the surrounding scenery and adding a lot of color to this antique street.

This scene has a style of people living on small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River. It also highlights the theme of Taihang Water Town.

It wasn’t until we walked out of the scenic spot that we truly understood the meaning of the name “Hometown Love. Taihang Water Town”. Seeing those past dwellings and farm tools triggered fond childhood memories. It is also a kind of sustenance for local emotions. The small bridges and flowing water here resemble the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and are a reflection of the life of Taihang people. Everything here is deeply engraved in my mind and turned into a permanent memory.
